Stupak May Retire

Over the past 24-hours news outlets have scrambled to follow up on reports that disgraced Congressman Bart Stupak may be considering resigning or retiring from his congressional seat.

Why? Because of the fallout he is facing from groups like ours at the Tea Party Express – and our announcement of a $250,000 campaign to “Defeat Bart Stupak.” Here’s an excerpt from the report:

The Democrat best known this year as the Democrat who delivered the winning margin of votes for the president’s health-care reform bill is said to be simply exhausted. The criticism he received — first from the left, and then from the right — has worn him and his family out. And if he had to make the decision now, he’d probably NOT run. As of this writing, a bunch of senior Democrats (many of the same ones who twisted his arm on the health care vote) are trying to talk him into running.
